glib-compile-resources: Add external data option

Add option to not encode resource data into the C source file
in order to embed the data using `ld -b binary`. This improves compilation
times, but can only be done on Linux or other platforms with a
supporting linker.

(Rebased by Philip Withnall, fixing minor rebase conflicts.)

Fixes #1489
